Bangladesh's star pacer Mustafizur Rahman is suffering from a shoulder injury and is awaiting permission from BCB's medical department to play in the DPL.

Mustafizur had not taken a token for a players' transfer this season even though Prime Bank has now informed that they had not released the player. There are rumours that the left-arm pacer may be called up to play in the IPL. If he does not play the IPL, and gets the green light from the medical department, he may play the ongoing DPL.

Mustafizur was administered a PRP injection yesterday according to sources. The injection is used for stimulating healing and to reduce pain through regeneration. Sources informed that he has been prescribed 7-10 days of rest.

Prime Bank sources said that talks have been held with Mustafizur.

"He has not gone to any other team but since there is an injury concern and we don't know much about the report, the medical department would let us know. If he is free and does not play IPL and the board allows, we will see," a Prime Bank official said.
